knitty owls

Hi everyone! I'm sure glad it's Friday today. I love this new preschool job of mine but it tires me out! I hope you have been enjoying my owl posts for this week. If you would like to get more owl inspiration, check out my pinterest board... http://pinterest.com/jenni_swenson1/hoot-hoot/ For today I had planned to knit up a bunch of darling owls out of this gorgeous ewe ewe yarn... http://www.eweewe.com/
My friend Heather owns the company and it is springy and delicious to knit with. I just peeked at her blog and saw that she is adding new colors... you should check them out!

I made this hat with her yarn last year... I've already worn it a few times this fall. The colors are just yummy!

Oh yes, back to my owls. I was planning on knitting 10 little owls to take to my preschool friends to use during circle time. The pattern is by Susan B. Anderson from last year's Christmas Knit Simple issue. Susan is one of my knitting idols. She's an all around cool person too. (I don't really know her, but I can tell from her blog) She has an owl post today too! http://susanbanderson.blogspot.com/2012/09/knit-simple-inside-issue-and-at-home.html

I didn't get all 10 finished... actually I didn't even get one entirely finished. But I will finish them soon and I promise to share them in all their glory. I hope you have marvelous plans this weekend. I'm hoping to finish painting my china hutch. I'll share that soon too. Have a wonderful weekend!
